IT’S a team game with success ultimately dependent on where your side finishes.
But when it comes to the Premier League and their top marksmen, there’s also a battle to top the scoring charts.

Four different players have topped the goal scoring table in the past five seasons and there’s a queue of top-class strikers with their eyes on the prize this year.
But you’d fancy they’ll all have to outscore Erling Haaland, who has bagged 63 goals in his two Premier League campaigns…

Premier League top scorer 2024/25
Erling Haaland – 8/13
Only one place to start.
Has topped the goal scoring charts in each of his two Premier League seasons, scoring 36 and 27, respectively.
Injury issues last season but still finished five goals clear. Will take a super-human effort, more injuries or incredible City decline to prevent him winning it again.
Mo Salah – 9/1
Haaland’s dominance highlighted by fact that Mo Salah is only other Premier League player at a single figure price.
New manager means new ideas, so can he kick on from his lowest scoring Liverpool league campaign?
Very much likely he can and penalty taker will fancy chances. Has won top scorer three times and finished runner-up once in seven seasons.

Alexander Isak – 11/1
Newcastle marksman finished behind just Haaland and Chelsea’s Cole Palmer last season after an impressive campaign.
Backed to do even better this time around with no European football and less rotation/injury chances than last season.
Will get chances in this Toon line-up and very much an each-way play.
Darwin Nunez – 16/1
Another who could benefit from the fresh input of Arne Slot but you’d need the ultimate faith to back at the prices.
Just 11 goals last season from his 36 appearances, with his eight assists showing he has more to his game than just his goals.
A total of 108 shots at goal shows he definitely gets chances. Can he take them this year?
Ollie Watkins – 16/1
His 19 goals last season were bettered only by Isak, Palmer and Haaland.
Might yet still be buzzing from England heroics in the summer but with elite European football for Aston Villa ahead, could find it tough to balance both.
Quality striker so no reason to suggest he can’t, yet.

Dominic Solanke – 16/1
Very much an interesting contender, having matched Watkins’ league goals last year for a Bournemouth side that were sensational in the second part of the season.
Now at a Tottenham side who are attack, attack, attack. And with quality on both wings and in behind, he’ll get chances.
His 19 goals came from 109 attempts at goal, so an improvement on the quality of chance and increase in those created could mean he’s a cracking bet.
Outsiders
Ivan Toney and – in particular – Cole Palmer are 20/1 shots, with the latter only topped by Erling Haaland last season. Can he do it again and sustain a high level in front of goal, under a new manager? Remains to be seen.
Arsenal’s best chance appears to be Bukayo Saka (22/1) ahead of both Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus (both 33/1).
And it’s a similar story for Manchester United, with Marcus Rashford and new number 9 Rasmus Hojlund both 40/1.
